Communication in Everyday Life: The Basic Course Edition With Public Speaking offers an engaging look at the inseparable connection between relationships and communication. Steve Duck and David T. McMahan combine theory and application to introduce students to fundamental communication concepts. Their book provides a strong foundation in communication concepts, theory, and research, while helping readers master practical communication skills, such as listening and critical thinking, using technology to communicate, understanding nonverbal communication, creative persuasive strategies, and managing group conflict. The Fourth Edition includes practical instruction on communicating interpersonally, in groups, in interviews and on making effective presentations. The authors inspire students to think critically, connect communication theory to their own experiences, and enhance their communication skills along the way.
